• Notes:

  
  Thomas Dickerson was likely the youngest surviving son of Peter and Naomi Dickerson as he is mentioned last in the 1698 and 1715 populationlists and his marriage in 1715 was later than those of his other brothers. He was born at Southold between 1686 (after the census of that year) and 1698, before that year's census. He is listed in the 1715 Suffolk Co. Militia List along with his brothers.
  
  Thomas married Abigail Reeve 13 Jan. 1715 at Southold and he died after just over 10 years of marriage, he not more than 38 years of age. His will was made and dated 27 May 1725, only a few months before his death, recorded in NY Liber 13, proved 10 April 1739. All of his children were under 10 years of age at the time the will was written. All children were provided for but Peter, not mentioned, and likely a posthumous child. This will is now in the possession of the Historical Documents Collection of Queens College, along with that of Thomas's brotherJohn. None of the land or meadow was to be sold before any of them became 26 years of age without the consent of the Executors and if any of the sons were to die before coming of age, the lands bequeathed that son were to be divided up among the others; the latter did occur when son Joseph died in 1740.
  
  Twelve years after her husband's death, his widow Abigail married Charles Wager, a widower from Boston.
